The site claims they have an editor "ICE" as open-source software. But that is a lie: it is not open source, but shareware or such.

They also accept contributions released only under the no-commercial-use-allowed license, so any dual licensing under a commercial-use-allowed license would be out of the window once a contribution gets merged.

Not sure what their business model is if they forbid commercial use. I guess selling commercial use licenses in violation of the no-commercial-use-allowed license?

A pretty load-bearing theme, full stop.
